Fill Me Up Acoustic by Staind ARTIST: Staind - Aaron Lewis SONG TITLE: Fill Me Up (Acoustic) ALBUM: 14 Shades of Gray TRACK NUMBER: 07 TABBED BY: Tim Knight Semi-simple song with easy chord progressions and strumming pattern with the classic Lewis style of dropped 1/2 step tuning when playing acoustic. Lot's of hammers in this song. The best version I have seen this song played acoustically is when he was on his tour at the Mohegan (see the video on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ci5-IXP4RU0) The only hard part is singing the song along with the chords because of the changes in pitch, and the last part of each verse switching the Cadd9 with the Gsus2. Dropped 1/2 step [CHORDS - VERSE] (last stanza of each verse) Em7 D Em7 Cadd9 Gsus2 eb|--3------2----3------3-------3-----| Bb|--3------3----3------3-------3-----| Gb|--0----0h2----0------0-----0h2-----| Db|--2------0----2------2-------0-----| Ab|--2------x----2------2-------x-----| Eb|--0------x----0------0-------3-----| [CHORDS - CHORUS] Cadd9 Em7 D eb|--3-------3------2----| Bb|--3-------3------3----| Gb|--0-------0----0h2----| Db|--2-------2------0----| Ab|--2-------2------x----| Eb|--0-------0------x----| -[VERSE 1]- Em7 D Em7 Cadd9 I just had to let you know Em7 D Em7 Cadd9 cause I don't always let it show Em7 D Em7 Cadd9 you give me needed room to grow Em7 D Em7 Gsus2 and I just had to tell you so -[CHORUS]- Cadd9 Em7 D You fill me up, you're in my veins Cadd9 A look could take my breath away Cadd9 Em7 D And all these things, you give away Cadd9 Sometimes I take for granted -[VERSE 2]- Em7 D Em7 Cadd9 It's just like poetry inside Em7 D Em7 Cadd9 To hear you breathing by my side Em7 D Em7 Cadd9 Like I’m in heaven and I’ve died Em7 D Em7 Gsus2 So glad you're with me for this ride -[REPEAT CHORUS]- -[VERSE 3]- Em7 D Em7 Cadd9 I see your face to start my day Em7 D Em7 Cadd9 Makes all my bad dreams go away Em7 D Em7 Cadd9 And all the stupid games we play Em7 D Em7 Gsus2 Wouldn't have it any other way -[REPEAT CHORUS x2]- www.TAB6.com
